hey i got a 1987 mercruise 4cyl 165hp motor.. im trying to remove the carbs from it so i could rebuilt it.. i unbolted the 4 nuts around the base of the carb and disconnected the fuel line and wire that goes to it. now i would thing it would just come up and off with a little yank.. but it seems to be stuck? or is there a hidden nut/bolt that i missed?

It has no hidden nut/bolt it should pull right up, You might need to tap on it a little or pry it up Carefully, But do not use any heat around it.:D
